dnata\u2019s leading global freight forwarder and logistics services provider, dnata Logistics, has broken ground on a new US$ 27 million, 57,000 sqm warehouse in Dubai South, the largest single-urban master development focusing on aviation, logistics and real estate.<\/p>\n

Located close to Dubai World Central – Al Maktoum International Airport (DWC), dnata Logistics says the facility, which is scheduled for completion in November 2025, will provide a major boost to its operational capabilities amid rising demand for cargo and logistics services in the region.<\/p>\n

Capable of processing 400,000 tonnes of cargo annually, the facility will increase dnata Logistics\u2019 storage capacity by 50% and create over 50 new, direct jobs with the company.<\/p>\n

The facility will be equipped with the latest technologies, including automated systems for cargo storage and retrieval (ASRS), and truck loading and offloading. An AI-driven warehouse management system (WMS) will also be implemented, delivering superior efficiency and value for partners.<\/p>\n

In line with dnata\u2019s global sustainability strategy, the warehouse was designed with a laser focus on environmental efficiency. It will feature solar panels, rainwater and energy harvesting systems, as well as smart heating, ventilation and air conditioning (HVAC) systems.<\/p>\n

The facility is expected to achieve the global LEED (Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design) certification one year after operations begin.<\/p>\n

Sean Bradley, managing director of dnata Logistics<\/a>, said: “We are thrilled to break ground on this new, advanced facility, which represents a pivotal investment in our future growth. As we expand our product offerings and reach new markets, this warehouse will allow us to provide even better services to our customers, while staying at the forefront of operational innovation.<\/p>\n

“Our commitment to sustainability is central to this project. From energy efficiency to waste reduction, every aspect of the warehouse has been designed with environmental efficiency in mind. The facility\u2019s innovative features will help us grow responsibly, making a positive impact on the communities we serve.”<\/p>\n

Mohsen Ahmad, chief executive of the Logistics District at Dubai South, said: “We are pleased to witness the breaking ground of dnata\u2019s innovative facility, which will add significant value to the thriving Dubai South area. We are committed to supporting dnata\u2019s growth with this new facility as part of an integrated ecosystem, and we remain dedicated to strengthening Dubai\u2019s position as a global logistics hub.”<\/p>\n
